Atyrau Refinery Restores its Power Supply

28.07.2022

Power supply to Atyrau Refinery was restored after 10 p.m. on 27 July.

At 11 p.m. on the same day, repair and commissioning were started to determine the operability of equipment at the refinery units that had been shut down due to a power outage.

The process failure is currently being repaired. Feed supply is scheduled to start by the evening of 28 July.

Let us recall that on 27 July Atyrau Refinery experienced power outages leading to its disconnection from KEGOC’s off-site grids. This resulted in an almost complete shutdown of Atyrau Refinery.

In order to prevent an emergency, the refinery’s fuel network was flared according to process regulations until the off-site power grid was fully stabilised.

As of 27 July, the refinery has a stock of: 26,000 tonnes of gasoline, 22,000 tonnes of diesel fuel, and 4,000 tonnes of jet fuel. These resources are shipped to consumers.
